Member cicerone Posted February 1, 2018 Member Share Posted February 1, 2018 Hi, I've never used 3D Coat proper, but it seems to have a transform tool option to manually key in scale values. Is that not part of 3DC printing? Am I missing something? Would seem to be a pretty important option given that we're trying to use real world measurements for 3D printing. Thanks, Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member cicerone Posted February 2, 2018 Author Member Share Posted February 2, 2018 I do have the LMB + Spacebar option. I also have POSITION. I thought there were also SCALE buttons and/or input in the tool options panel to key in exact MM values. I guess not. The heart model below is mine. The other one is from Google images of the transform tool options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Hi This is the default Transform tool in 3DC printing. Move tool have different controls. Do you installed latest version ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted February 7, 2018 Reputable Contributor Share Posted February 7, 2018 If you need precise measurements, you can use the MEASURE tool for that purpose, as is shown midway through this video: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
